Rayne Police Department has responded to multiple terrorizing incidents at local schools in the last week.
On Monday, April 12, 2021, Armstrong Middle School received multiple emails threatening a bombing and mass shooting event. An investigation identified a 14-year-old girl Armstrong student as the sender of the emails. The student was charged with five counts of terrorizing, according to police.
On Tuesday, April 20, 2021, at 10:55 AM, Rayne High School received a bomb threat by telephone. The school was cleared of students. The campus was searched using multiple dogs trained to find explosive devices. No devices were found and the school was released back to staff at 1:30 PM. This matter is under investigation and an arrest is probable.
More Threats Against Rayne School Today, Investigation Underway
On Monday of last week, officials at Armstrong Middle School were alerted to threats made against that school. Emails from a 14-year old student of that school threatened bombing and a mass shooting. That 14-year old has been charged.
Another threat was made today, this one was a bomb threat via a telephone call to Rayne High School. Students and staff were evacuated, the campus was locked down and searched, but no bomb was found. An investigation into the matter is underway.
I remember the days in which the only threat to schools was a kid trying to blow up the school bus and burning his lips on the exhaust pipe. (Y all remember that joke? Kids would probably get arrested today for telling it in the wrong place. We don t joke about that stuff any longer.)
